    Global Market Update

    The S&P 500 closed lower after retreating from fresh all-time intraday highs on Wednesday. Gains in Alphabet weren’t enough to offset losses in chip stocks, as investors booked profits following recent rallies.

    Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.9%.

    S&P 500 slipped 0.3% after hitting an intraday high of 6,965.69.

    Nasdaq Composite rose 0.2%.

    U.S. private employers added fewer jobs than expected in December, though this reversed a steep decline in November. ADP reported a rise of 41,000 private payrolls in December versus an anticipated 49,000. Investors are now eyeing Friday’s U.S. December jobs report and the Supreme Court’s ruling on tariffs imposed by former President Trump, which may bring short-term volatility.
